#counting one's blessings

[belsasim]

The goal of this Sulani vacation was to rest and spend time together as a family. That started with having meals together. Rayne hadn't lost his cooking skill, nor his healthy eating lifestyle, so he treated his family to a delicious but still healthy tropical fruit salad for breakfast.

Everyone chatted with each other, talking about all the noises they had heard outside that night, how nice the beds were and making plans for the day. Kit hadn't really warmed up to his father again, his anger and sadness ran too deep for that still, but he appreciated the effort Rayne was making. He did his best to engage in conversation with both is parents and joked a little with his siblings.

Rayne took a moment to fall silent and look around the breakfast table. How he had missed the voices of his children, the jokes they made, the smile on Sarah's face. Never again he would leave them behind. Never.

This was the only article I could find about York’s at the Midnight Follies, from The Era, January 16, 1924:

sometimes repeating the same information back in your face is funny

sometimes it also backfires :P (everything backfires when it comes to Deadpool, just give up Miguel, he is planning on 100% that sidequest)

I got Procreate and gave it a test run with some silly AU sketches of course

So have Calamity SJ adopting Hong‘er! Ft. my silly calamity MNQ AU and it’s inevitable conclusion of atticwife Jun Wu in the second pic because I am no longer in control here.

SY tried to be the cool uncle, unfortunately YQY is the cooler uncle so he got the Feng Xin treatment. Binghe about to start beef with a child lmfao.

Ling Wen is new heavenly emperor and I ensure you she is as overworked as ever, but she does not care about heavenly officials marrying calamities anymore. First was YQY, and then Jun Wu. Xie Lian and Shi Qingxuan are really not trendstarters here.

No time to sleep, science awaits!

I am not sure (and haven't done my research yet) how exactly universities in UK worked in ~1875 but seeing how prone to change systems of education are, I doubt thigs have changed much since.

So since I hc Victor as a botany student, and Holmes did chemistry, it seems likely they had a couple of mutual faculties and studied together, riiiiight?

people may complain how qsmp lore is too fast-paced or hard to follow but at the LEAST it’ll never be as bad as the yoscast timeline

Being a Qi Ying devotee must be crazy cause it's the only sect that actually guarantees that you can see a deity in the flesh. Not by being a pious or anything, provided you're annoying enough the god you worship can and will descend from the heavens just to personally beat the shit out of you.

part three of me losing my mind over the tfone storyboards because i somehow completely missed the ones zhi kang posted for optimus vs megatron and the one where the quartet were friends from the start (guest appearance ASTROTRAINNNN THE GOATTTT) and buddy i have two things to say about these storyboards: OW, FUCK? and ohhhh my god of course orion's a little bit of a geeky nerd.

i mean come on, frat boy coded though he be, it takes a certain mettle to consistently risk your life for some data records—a mettle i dub the unquenchable thirst of history nerds. he definitely knows there's a constellation out there with his name.

but back to the angsty one (obviously). MOTHERFUCKER I DID A REDRAW FOR A SCREENCAP OF MEGATRON'S EXPRESSION WHEN OPTIMUS CAME BACK WITH THE THOUGHT IN MIND OF "i wonder if megatron was briefly happy his friend returned under all those conflicted emotions before he realised that what came back was a prime" and youre telling me he was gonna call him by his fucking name? dawg. dawg im done. dawg i cant do this no more.

AND THEN TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, IN THIS STORYBOARD, AFTER MEGATRON'S DEFEAT OPTIMUS STILL OFFERS MEGATRON A HAND? OF FRIENDSHIP? OF REDEMPTION? OF A FUTURE TOGETHER? yeah that's the "i can fix him" mf i know. which hurts EVEN MORE knowing that what ended up in the final cut was optimus resigning himself to the fact he's already too far gone. daaaaaaWWWWWGGGGGGHHHHHHH.

i also REALLY LIKED the idea of the scene where megatron speaking to the people was with optimus PRESENT as opposed to when he's dead because in showing that optimus ALLOWS megatron to speak to the people and ALLOWS the people the decision of following another leader or remaining in iacon is just. so optimus ykwim. he may disagree but he won't silence it and i feel like that's the important differing factor he has as a leader compared to sentinel which megatron fails to see because he's too blinded by the title of "prime" affixed to what used to be his friend. he probably just sees optimus as just another false prime despite him literally carrying the matrix, chosen by primus himself, maybe because optimus could never live up to the expectations of what megatron once believed the core of a prime. a prime that now belongs to a past which was torn to shreds by sentinel

Currently reading Sansûkh because I am not able to move around much right now, and I was just thinking how like, all the interspecies ships HAVE to be collaborative works between Mahal and the other Valar, so basically they got together and made OC's specifically to fall in love and get married, and if that isn't fandom-coded behavior, idk what is.

Tldr: the Valar are a bunch of artist friends who get together and make dolls together so they can kiss and fall in love and get married 💕

me when the parallels between renfield and Jonathan go completely undressed during October first

Not in the journal entries, no. But I bet good money Jonathan had some Thoughts afterwards not safe to put in the (now communal) diary.
